Man charged in Michigan MySpace rape
Man charged with assaulting a woman he met on MySpace:
BIRMINGHAM, Mich. (AP) — A 35-year-old Rochester Hills man is in the Oakland County Jail, charged with sexually assaulting a woman he met on a popular Internet Web site.
A 31-year-old Bloomfield Township woman has accused Jason Tucker of raping her after possibly being drugged.
The two, who met on MySpace.com, had their first date at a local bar, where he bought the woman several drinks.
She told police she had no recollection of leaving the lounge, the Detroit Free Press reported. She said she woke up in the man’s bed the next morning in his apartment, and that, despite her protests and struggles, he raped her.
After reporting the incident to police, Tucker was arrested Aug. 9.
Police have also located three other women who reported that they, too, met him online and had encounters with him at local bars.
Tucker’s MySpace is MIA for now but I did manage to find his business website.

Is it entirely possible that it was consensual sex that, after waking up, she began to realize the guilt she felt and took the retribution to the limit? There was NO trace of drugs in her system, They woke up the next morning and then he drove her back to her car….could have called a taxi maybe? Could have just left and called a friend to pick her up maybe? Be very careful what you read…it is always slanted. Given a reporters desire to make it to the front page, it is then no wonder that they will “spice up” a story to make it interesting. By the way, they found 2 other women that met up with him….nothing occured, they just didn’t click. But this then turns into “suspicion” that he was always willing to go and get their drinks….could it be that he was just trying to be nice?? Naaahh…not juicy enough….musta put somethin’ in ‘em!! Yeeaaa…that’ll get people to read it!! What a load of big ol’ smelly cow poo -

Of course you know ’cause you were there huh? Could it be that you’re friends with Jason and writing this entry to try and change the publics mind? nahhh, you wouldn’t do that would you?
I do however happen to agree with you in the point that the press always spices things up. There’s no doubt about that.
Also, I’ve seen similar situations where consensual sex became regrettable and accusations were made.
I guess we’ll just have to leave it up to the courts to decide. But then it only becomes a he said, she said situation. And we all know that the woman usually wins those.
Hopefully justice will be served no matter the outcome!

How could she of called a taxi when a witness said she was completely passed out when Jason carried her into his apartment.?? Why would he take a woman he just met that was passed out, back to his apartment?? In my experience with that, usually you either call them a cab, or use their cell phone to call a friend of theirs to come get them. Simple!! Why even put yourself in that situation?? Not very smart, and certainly not a very respectful thing to do at all.

Is it possible that maybe she told him before they even met up for drinks that she was only interested in friendship and wasn’t into one-night stands? Is it possible that not only did she specify that their meeting was not a date, but that she recently moved back to the area and didn’t have many friends. Because of this, that’s all she was looking for was friends and good company? Not only that, but when they were out at the bar, she encoraged him to go and meet other girls to remind him once again that they were not out on a “date”, but that all she wanted from him was friendship. Even when she danced with him, her dancing with him suddenly made him think this was an invitation to kiss her after which he tried, but she refused his advances and once again reminded him that she wasn’t interested in that! Maybe he didn’t put something in her drink……but so what? I mean, whether he used a date-rape drug or alchohol, what’s the difference??? The agenda he had was the same. He was hoping he could get lucky that night and take advantage of a severely intoxicated woman. When a person becomes highly intoxicated, their ability to even give consent becomes interrupted. Okay, maybe he put her in his bed, took off her clothes, and tried doing stuff with her. Maybe she did respond at first, thinking she was dreaming and not even realizing it was real, then all of a sudden when she realized that he wanted to have sex with her, she said, ” this is not right, please don’t do that”, and she repeated it over and over while trying to squirm away from him, yet he insisted and persisted to put himself in her body. Because of her insistence, he apparently never climaxed accorrding to him. He had no choice because she clearly did not want that and she would not stop telling him no, or squirming away. Then maybe the the shock set in that morning. Could it be that in the morning she was still so out of it and so in shock of what had happened that all she wanted to do was to pass out and get home. Maybe she wanted to try and block it out of her mind and not think about the fact that someone put his penis inside her even after she said she did not want him too.
Here’s another fact: she was on the second day of her period and he was the one that pulled her tampon out of her while she was still laying there semi-coma tose. Now, what woman in their right mind would want to have sex with someone they just met while on the second day of their period? and to top that all off……..without a condom??? C’mon man, i am so sick of people getting away with this type of shit!! It’s just not right. I mean how can one justify that taking advantage of someone when they are intoxicated should be tolerated?? Intoxication alters the mind’s ability to think cognitively and make rational decisions, yet the body still responds to stimuli. Someone could be so out of it to the point that they don’t even know that they are physically responding to being touched because if they were in the right state of mind, it would not be happening at all. Intoxication brings out the vulnerability in people. The emotions, and physical reactions are even more heightened in this alchoholic induced state. So, all i am saying is, think about what i just said and realize that it doesn’t matter whether she was drugged or not, the point is………she was violated. This woman realizes that these allegations have already effected this man’s life and she had no motive to ruin his life or falsely accuse him just for the hell of it. She is a warm, caring and loving woman that wishes this never happened in the first place and if she could go back and never have met up with him, she would do it in a heartbeat.

and this is coming from the same woman that claims it happened to her as well?? The same woman that claimed to be her friend?? It’s too bad she found out so late what a psycho nutcase you really are!! I wouldn’t be surprised if i heard that you killed someone in a drunken rage one day! Wow, it’s unfathomable to me that you would stoop this low as to try and use this awful thing that happened against her! Talk about being vindictive!! You sure are a vicious little thing arent ya? I read her blogs, and it seemed to me that she was articulate in stating her beef with you. Obviously, the truth must of hit ya hard!! You should really just stick to worrying about your own issues and making sure your fiancee doesn’t find out about you cheating on him. Oh wait…you were drunk weren’t you?? So it doesn’t count cause you were having one of your many black outs right?? Obviously either way, you certainly received the Attention you craved!! You are one paranoid & sick woman! Get a life and go seek therapy! you really really need it, for the sake of your kids!! Just remember Missy, people in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones!!
truth hurts

She did not lie about anything Missy, and you know it!! You’re just seething with madness because the truth hurts. You didn’t just turn your back on her, you flipped out on her in a drunken rage, and she had the decency to chalk it up to you being drunk and forgiving you for it. But then you just turned your back on her without even saying anything to her about it. You just started writing nasty comments on myspace about not liking her and talking shit behind her back as if she did something so terrible to you when you know she didn’t do crap. You just blew it all out of proportion! Considering all of the screwed up things you have done, it’s amazing that you have no empathy!! She got tired of letting people walk on her and that is when she wrote that blog about what happened between you two. Why is it that it’s totally acceptable for you to flip out on her, but if she writes a blog about what you did to her then she is all of a sudden evil and a liar?? She is one of the most honest people you could ever know!! She does believe that the night you treated her with such vengeance and cruelty, she thought you had SOME valid points. However, the points you brought up, were some you are guilty of yourself. You seem to be extremely hypocritical and not very honest with yourself. Maybe that’s why you couldn’t handle being her friend? because you felt the need to compete with her? C’mon, i am sure your friends can secretly admit that you always have to be the center of attention!! You have to be the hottest one in the room, climbing on everyone and licking heads for the picture and all of the other attention seeking behaviors you engage in. You need to look in the mirror sweetie and face the music.
